Exercise and treatment carried out in water, using its buoyancy and resistance for recovery, including aquatic therapy in general, the Halliwick concept, Ai Chi, the Bad Ragaz Ring method and hydrogymnastics. An entry belongs here when its own source describes therapy or exercise performed in water. It excludes baths used only for heat or cold and bodywork given in water. Each member is a physical rehabilitation entry that the atlas covers as a subject in its own right, placed here on what its cited article says it is and how it is used, never on its name alone.
